1987 My Era

Chapter 429, Contemporary No.
In the bathroom, Yu Shuheng hugged Li Heng from behind.

Outside the bathroom, Zhou Shihe, who happened to pass by, looked surprised and confused.

The air suddenly became dead silent!

Li Heng couldn't help but half turn around with a toothbrush in his mouth and looked into Zhou Shihe's eyes.

Yu Shuheng quietly loosened her hands, then smiled and said to Zhou Shihe, "Shihe, good morning."

"Morning, Teacher Yu."

Zhou Shihe responded gently, then avoided his gaze for a moment, continued walking forward, and walked down the stairs slowly.

Although it was only about 6:40, it had been light outside for more than two hours. Zhou Shihe, who couldn't sleep, didn't hear any noise coming from the living room just now, and thought the two had left, so he came out, but he didn't expect to run into their ambiguous scene.

He never expected that Teacher Yu would be the proactive one and hug him from behind.

How could this be?
Although there had been speculation about their relationship before, seeing it with her own eyes still had a big impact on her, and it even overturned her three views a little bit.

So much so that when she met up with Wei Xiaozhu to have breakfast outside the school, her mind was still full of the image of the woman hugging the man in the bathroom.

"Shihe, what's wrong with you? You seem absent-minded?"

Seeing that she was distracted and almost got the tofu pudding on her clothes, Wei Xiaozhu asked her with concern.

Zhou Shihe smiled to himself: "I'm thinking about composing music. Have you packed the things you want to bring?"

"Okay, it's all here."

Wei Xiaozhu pointed at the backpack and asked, "Has Li Heng left?"

Zhou Shihe said: "Wash at home."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xiaozhu wanted to bring breakfast to Li Heng on the way, but was stopped.

Zhou Shihe said: "Teacher Yu brought him breakfast."

In fact, she didn't know whether Teacher Yu brought him breakfast, she just simply didn't want to go back so early.

"Oh, okay." Wei Xiaozhu had no doubts.

On the other side, Building 26.

Watching Zhou Shihe leave, Li Heng felt depressed.

This Miss Zhou is good in every way except that she is too thin, her steps are small, and her walking noise is low. He was distracted by Teacher Yu's hug just now, and he didn't even hear the footsteps coming from the living room.

Looking at Teacher Yu through the mirror.

A thought suddenly popped into his mind: Did Teacher Yu do this on purpose?

But seeing her normal facial expression, he was not sure for a moment.

After all, this is Teacher Yu, who is loved by everyone and is usually as cold and aloof as an Antarctic iceberg. Would she really lower herself to do such a thing?

Yu Shuheng asked elegantly: "Little boy, what are you thinking about?"

After observing her again and finding nothing wrong, Li Heng had no choice but to give up. He rinsed his mouth, washed his face and said, "Teacher, let's go."

After picking up their luggage, the two left Lushan Village, got into a Mercedes at the entrance of the alley, and headed straight for the airport.

When passing by the school gate, Yu Shuheng asked, "Are you hungry?"

Through the car window, Li Heng saw Zhou Shihe and Wei Xiaozhu at a glance, thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's still early, I'm not hungry yet, let's go to Xiangnan to eat rice noodles, I've been craving for a long time."

Yu Shuheng glanced at him, then glanced at the two women across the street, stepped on the accelerator slightly, and sped away from Fudan University.

The flight was at 9 o'clock, so the two arrived at the airport after 8 o'clock.

Yu Shuheng did not get out of the car, but sat in the driver's seat and watched him get out and leave.

The airport was bustling with people coming and going, much more lively than he had imagined. After walking about 50 meters forward, Li Heng paused, pondered for a moment, then turned around and walked back.

Yu Shuheng rolled down the window and asked warmly, "Did you leave something behind?"

Li Heng shook his head, stood in front of the car and looked at her, and said after a while: "Thank you, teacher, for sending me here."

Yu Shuheng stared into his eyes, "If you really want to thank me, you might as well invite me to Changsha to eat a bowl of authentic rice noodles."

At this moment, Li Heng was a little unsure of her thoughts, but he did not refuse: "Okay, then follow me."

Yu Shuheng looked at him for a while, opened the car door and got out.

When it was time to check in and board the plane, he asked, "Teacher, do you have a ticket?"

Yu Shuheng took out a plane ticket from her pocket.

Li Heng was speechless and muttered, "You planned this long ago."

Yu Shuheng smiled and turned around to leave, "If you're scared, I'll go back now."

Li Heng reached out and held her, and couldn't help but sigh in fear: Fortunately, I held back a few days ago and didn't go to her bed, otherwise I wouldn't have to go anywhere.

After passing security and boarding the plane, he closed his eyes as soon as he sat down.

Teacher Yu asked, "I didn't get enough rest last night."

Li Heng replied: "No, I am reflecting."

Teacher Yu was surprised: "Reflect on what?"

Li Heng said slowly: "I'm reflecting on how I offended you."

Surprisingly, Teacher Yu did not pursue the question further. Instead, he curled the corners of his mouth slightly, took out a book, and slowly flipped through it.

Hearing the sound of pages turning from time to time, Li Heng asked, "How many books does the teacher read in a month?"

"Not sure, I guarantee 2 to 3," she said.

"No wonder."

"What's the wonder?"

“The scholarly temperament is so strong.”

Yu Shuheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Does it suit your taste?"

At this moment, the plane took off. The turbulence interrupted their conversation. Li Heng opened his eyes and looked outside. He didn't speak until he entered the stratosphere and stabilized. "I didn't get enough rest last night. I'll make up for it."

"Ah."

Yu Shuheng, who was busy until very late, had a rough idea of ​​what time he went to bed last night. Her gaze lingered on his profile for a while, and when she heard his regular breathing, she slowly closed her eyes, also intending to catch up on some sleep.

It only takes about an hour and a half to fly from Shanghai to Changsha, so it only takes a nap. Just when Li Heng was dozing off, he was woken up by Teacher Yu beside him.

"Are we here?"

"Correct."

After the plane landed and stopped steadily, Li Heng cheered up and followed the crowd to the gate.

When leaving the airport, Yu Shuheng asked him out of the blue: "What do you think about me settling down here?"

Don’t, don’t!
Da Qingyi bought a house here. If you buy another one, and you both like to fly, there is a chance that you won’t run into each other one day. Wouldn’t you fight?
Li Heng smacked his lips and replied, "I usually don't stay here, I always go back home directly."

Yu Shuheng understood what he meant, smiled meaningfully, and let it go.

If you say you want to eat noodles, then you really want to eat noodles.

They chose an old noodle shop in the city. Li Heng had beef noodles and Teacher Yu had pork ribs noodles.

After eating it, she commented: "It's OK, but not as good as the one in Shaoyang."

Li Heng agreed with this. "Since you are here, do you want to go to Shao City to visit Teacher Wang?"

Yu Shuheng asked: "Do you want me to go?"

Li Heng shook his head: "Your feet are on your body."

Yu Shuheng said: "Then I won't go."

Seeing him looking at her, she took a bite of noodles and said, "She made fun of me a few days ago. A man ran away after lying on me. He was so unattractive and so embarrassing. It would be embarrassing if I didn't go to her place."

Li Heng's face turned dark and he opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

After eating the beef noodles, Yu Shuheng glanced at her watch and asked him, "When are you going back to Shanghai? I can help you buy a ticket."

"I still have to go to Beijing, but I'm not sure yet." Li Heng said truthfully.

Yu Shuheng looked at him, then looked at him again, then waved her right hand, and a car stopped in front of the store. The driver was Zeng Yun. She didn't stop, got into the car, and sped to the airport.

Li Heng followed her out and stood by the roadside, watching her go.

The lady boss yelled from behind: "Boy, you haven't paid yet!"

Li Heng didn't say much, returned to the store, and shouted: "Another bowl of beef noodles."

The proprietress took a look at his clothes and saw that he had an extraordinary temperament. She thought that he would not dine and run, so she brought him another bowl of beef noodles.

As if he had guessed what the proprietress was thinking, Li Heng quickly took out three bowls of rice and placed them on the corner of the table, then began to eat with peace of mind.

It is said that rice noodles are not as good as noodles and they don’t fill you up.

He ate two bowls in a row without feeling full, mainly because the portions were small and he still felt very satisfied.

After coming out of the noodle shop, he first bought a bottle of soda to quench his thirst, and then found a grocery store to make a phone call.

The first call he made was to Sun Manning's home, and it was Sun's mother who answered the phone.

"Auntie, has Manning come to Changsha?" Li Heng asked after the polite exchanges.

"Here she is. The bus leaves at 8: in the morning. She said you have a meeting place, is that right?" asked Sun's mother worriedly.

"Yes, I will go to the bus station to pick her up later. After I pick her up, I want her to call you back." Li Heng raised his left wrist.

"Hey, that's good."

Estimating the time, if everything goes smoothly, it will take this girl more than 40 minutes to get here.

It’s not far from here to the bus station on foot, about 10 minutes at most.

Not urgent.

Thinking about this, Li Heng started to make the second call, to Song Yu.

Perhaps knowing that I would come over in the next two days, Song Yu, who had never answered my phone calls before, appeared on the phone this time as soon as possible.

"Li Heng?"

"Ah! You guessed it before I even introduced myself?" Li Heng seemed particularly happy for no reason.

Receiving his happy factor, Song Yu smiled and said, "Based on my feeling, it should be you."

Then she asked, "Where are you?" Li Heng told her, "Near Changsha West Bus Station, waiting for Manning."

"Okay, then call me when you arrive in Yueyang and my sister-in-law and I will pick you up." Song Yu said.

"Ah."

The call was not long, mainly because it was very lively over there and there seemed to be a lot of people. The two of them tacitly did not say much, agreed on the meeting place and hung up the phone.

After making two consecutive calls, he thought about it and made the last call to Mai Sui.

The call was answered by Maidong, but unfortunately, Maisui had gone to his hometown in the countryside with his grandparents and couldn't come back for a while, and there was no telephone access in his hometown, so he had to give up.

After hanging up the receiver, Li Heng didn't delay any longer. He paid the fee and walked towards the bus station.

When passing by a newsstand, he was stunned. He glanced over and found that many newspaper front-page headlines were about the writer "December".

For example, the headline on the front page of People's X Newspaper: The Nobel Prize-level charm of "White Deer Plain"!
China Youth Daily: "White Deer Plain" is the best novel of our time!

Guangming Daily: "White Deer Plain", a classic masterpiece handed down from generation to generation!

Beijing Daily: "White Deer Plain" is a masterpiece by a master that you cannot miss!
Southern Daily: Li Ao read "White Deer Plain" three times and said it was comparable to "One Hundred Years of Solitude"!
Xinmin Evening News: December’s new book “White Deer Plain” has come to an end, an immortal masterpiece!
These are the front-page news of major national newspapers. Look at the headlines they came up with, each one is more frightening than the other. Li Heng's face turned red unconsciously.

He roughly flipped through more than 40 copies and found that newspapers across the country were reporting on the story crazily. He had dominated the news overnight!

In the words of later generations, he was at the top of the list.

It was not until then that he realized that the latest issue of "Harvest" magazine had been published and released yesterday. It turned out that he had been busy recording an instrumental album recently and had forgotten about this important event!
Damn it!

This is totally wrong. This is the foundation of my life, and yet I forgot about it in such a busy time.

Li Heng slapped his forehead with his right hand in annoyance. He looked around but couldn't find any trace of Harvest magazine. He had no choice but to ask the newsstand owner: "Boss, don't you sell the latest issue of Harvest magazine here?"

"Boy, you are late! We sold out of stock yesterday, and the batch of goods that arrived this morning was sold out in less than 20 minutes." Thinking of the business in the past two days, the newsstand owner's face was full of joy.

Li Heng was surprised: "They were sold out in 20 minutes. Is it so popular?"

The boss lit a cigarette, took two deep puffs, and proudly pointed at four or five newspapers with his fingers: "Look for yourself, look, the news is all reporting on "White Deer Plain", it is quite popular. Let me tell you, this December is still for us Hunanese, a great writer! Fellow countryman!"

Ouch! Stop praising me! Stop praising me in front of me!

Being praised like this, Li Heng felt a little embarrassed, but also a little proud. "I bought the Harvest magazine for my boss. Boss, do you think it's available elsewhere?"

"Selling? Are you kidding me? It's okay, it's okay! If it's here, it must be there in other places too."

The newsstand owner waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "A lot of people asked the same question as you yesterday and today. They all came to me because they couldn't buy it elsewhere."

The answer was expected, so Li Heng asked on a whim.

Then he lowered his head and made a swiping motion with his right hand, saying, "Boss, give me a copy of this, this, this, and this newspaper."

He asked for nearly 30 newspapers in one breath, which made the boss grimaced and he quickly bent down to pick them up one by one.

The newsstand owner smiled and said, "Boy, you have good taste. Someone also bought something like this yesterday, saying that he was supporting a fellow writer."

What support? I can't get even a single cent from your newspapers, Li Heng secretly complained, but before he could reply, a middle-aged man next to him spoke up.

The middle-aged man said proudly, "Boss, you are right. Hunan has finally produced a famous writer who is famous all over the country. We should support him. Please give me a copy of any newspaper that reports on our fellow villagers."

The middle-aged man was obviously imitating Li Heng's example and bought more than 50 newspapers with a wave of his hand.

Li Heng was stunned, thinking, I bought the newspaper to see how many people praised me? To see what the specific reaction was.
What's the point of buying so many newspapers?
Seeing Li Heng's expression, the middle-aged man laughed and said, "Little brother, you are very interesting. I bought it and read it slowly. I am a reader of our fellow villager. From "To Live" to "Cultural Journey" and then to "White Deer Plain", I have followed it all the way."

Li Heng gave a thumbs up and said, "Like you, I am also a die-hard supporter of our fellow countryman."

"I figured it out, haha." The middle-aged man said, pointing to the 30 or so newspapers in his hand.

Li Heng smiled happily and took out his money to pay the bill.

At this time, the middle-aged man asked: "Young man, you look familiar. Where do you work?"

"Hey, it would have been fine if you hadn't said it. Now that you mentioned it, I also felt that he looked familiar." The newsstand owner kept staring at Li Heng.

Look familiar?

It seems that this is a regret brought by appearing on the Spring Festival Gala. Li Heng said with a smile: "I work in the tax bureau and I just joined this year."

"Assignment of college students?" The middle-aged man poked his head out.

Li Heng opened his mouth and said: "Yes."

"Incredible." This time it was the middle-aged man's turn to give a thumbs up, then he patted him on the shoulder, rolled up a bundle of newspapers and left.

Li Heng was puzzled.

After the people walked away, the newsstand owner asked Li Heng, "Boy, don't you know him?"

Li Heng blinked: "Very famous?"

The newsstand owner said: "Your tax bureau leaders have to bow and scrape when they see him. He is the most famous person in our city!"

The newsstand owner pointed his index finger toward the sky.

Li Heng understood, it turned out that he had just met with the big boss of Chang City.

He then asked, "Why did he come here?"

The newsstand owner said, "His wife's family is from here."

After chatting for a while, seeing that time was running out, Li Heng quickly paid the bill and left.

After rushing all the way, we finally arrived at the bus station, but damn, the weather was not good and it started raining again.

There was no other choice, so Li Heng bought an umbrella, then looked left and right, and finally stopped in front of a restaurant next to the entrance.

The restaurant owner greeted: "Would you like to eat?"

"Wait, waiting for someone." Li Heng replied.

Seeing that there was a play, the boss suddenly became enthusiastic: "Are you waiting for the train to arrive?"

Li Heng is right.

"Where are you waiting for the car?"

"Shao City."

The boss looked at the time and said, "It should be here soon. If there are no problems with the car, it will usually arrive at the station around 11:50."

Li Heng asked: "Are you familiar with the driver?"

"Of course I am familiar with it. I have been running a restaurant here for more than three years and I am familiar with drivers from all over the place. Wait, I will help you look for a bus. The bus to Shao City at noon is blue." said the boss.

Li Heng expressed his gratitude: “Thank you.”

It was said to be around 11:50, and it was exactly at this time. The boss pointed at a bus that had just turned the corner and said, "That's the one. The person you're waiting for should be on it."

Li Heng looked over there and saw the "Shao City - Changsha" sign on the front windshield of the car.

Li Heng was tall and handsome, and he stood out in the crowd. Sun Manning, who was in the car, also noticed him and immediately asked the driver to stop the car.

"Li Heng, did you miss me?" This girl was very outgoing and full of enthusiasm as soon as she got off the car.

Li Heng rolled his eyes: "No, why would I miss you?"

"Oh my! I'm asking this on behalf of Mai Sui." Sun Manning curled her lips.

The boss then interrupted: "Want to eat?"

Li Heng smiled and nodded, then took the girl into the store, ordered four expensive dishes in one go, and did not disappoint the boss.

"It's so hot. I'm dying of heat." Sun Manning patted her chest, took the ice soda he handed her, tilted her head back and drank most of it.

After drinking the soda, her eyes widened: "Why did you buy so many newspapers?"

Li Heng asked back: "What do you think?"

Sun Manning looked down and immediately laughed and scolded: "Oh my! How conceited!"

Li Heng chuckled, turned to the People's Daily report, and started reading it while waiting for his food.

It is said to be a news report, but in fact it is also a literary review.

However, when he saw the name of the literary critic, he was stunned. Zhao Ming, editor-in-chief of "People's Literature"?

You are the editor-in-chief of People's Literature, so why do you write literary reviews for yourself?

As we all know, because of his appearance, the sales of "Harvest" magazine has surpassed "People's Literature" for 9 consecutive times, which caused a sensation in the industry.

To put it bluntly, I am the enemy of People's Literature!
But looking at the title "The Nobel Prize-level charm of "White Deer Plain"", it shouldn't be irony, right?
With some curiosity, Li Heng skipped the news title and the commentator's name and read the main text:
In the vast literary universe, there are always some works that are like bright stars, crossing the boundaries of time and space and illuminating the hearts of readers. "White Deer Plain", a masterpiece created by the famous writer Mr. Shi Er Yue with all his heart and soul, is undoubtedly one of them. It is not only a monument of contemporary Chinese literature, but also regarded by countless readers and critics as a literary treasure comparable to the Nobel Prize in Literature.

In-depth analysis: The Nobel-level charm of "White Deer Plain"
1. Epic narrative structure
"White Deer Plain" is set in a village called Bailu Village on the Guanzhong Plain in Shaanxi Province. Through the grievances and entanglements of several generations of the Bai and Lu families, it shows the social changes over more than half a century from the late Qing Dynasty to the early Republic of China to the eve of the founding of New China. This novel, with a grand historical perspective and delicate brushstrokes, constructs a magnificent picture of the times. Its narrative breadth and depth are comparable to any world-class literary work.

2. The depth and complexity of character creation

The characters created by Mr. Shi Er Yue are vivid and unique. Whether it is Bai Jiaxuan's perseverance, Lu Zilin's cunning and changeable, or Tian Xiao'e's tragic fate, they are all impressive. These characters are not only footnotes of the times, but also a profound revelation of the bright and dark sides of human nature, showing the author's deep insight into human nature and compassion.

3. Profound and unique cultural heritage
"White Deer Plain" is not only a family history and social history, but also a profound cultural history. The novel incorporates rich Guanzhong folk customs, folk beliefs, family ethics and other elements to construct a unique cultural world. This in-depth exploration and reproduction of traditional culture has given the work a cultural value that transcends the times, and also allows international readers to glimpse the profoundness of Chinese culture.

4. Exquisite and unique language art
Mr. Shi Eryue's language is simple and powerful, retaining the charm of Shaanxi folk culture while also being fluent and accurate in modern Chinese. He skillfully uses language to construct a literary space that is both real and symbolic, allowing readers to travel between words as if they were experiencing that magnificent history. This superb language art is one of the important reasons why "White Deer Plain" can transcend national boundaries and win praise from readers around the world.

Conclusion: The light of literature illuminates the future
White Deer Plain is not only the pride of Chinese literature, but also a shining pearl in the treasure house of world literature. With its epic narrative, profound characterization, profound cultural heritage and exquisite language art, it demonstrates the power and charm of literature. As the Nobel Prize in Literature pursues, White Deer Plain has won wide praise and high evaluation from readers for its outstanding artistic achievements and profound ideological connotations. It is not only the personal glory of the writer December, but also a bright business card for Chinese literature to go global in the future.

The commentary was very long, with more than 2,000 words. After reading it carefully, Li Heng was quite touched and was silent for a while looking at the newspaper.

Sun Manning, who was standing next to him, also finished reading it. She glanced around and whispered, "Li Heng, you are amazing! Even the editor-in-chief of People's Literature praised you and stood on your side."

Li Heng rolled his eyes and said, "What do you mean by letting bygones be bygones? There is no personal grudge between him and me."

"Tsk! Harvest magazine is suppressing People's Literature so much. If I were the editor-in-chief of People's Literature, I would definitely not praise you, no matter how great your book is!" said Sun Manning.

Li Heng said faintly: "You have long hair but little knowledge, so you are not the editor-in-chief of People's Literature."

"What do you mean? Do you look down on me? After all, I am an excellent student of Fudan University." Sun Manning held her head high and put her right hands on her waist.

Li Heng glared at her: "If you don't have a vision, it doesn't matter how big your breasts are or how perky your butt is."

Sun Manning lowered her head and said with a sly look, "My breasts are not as big as Teacher Runwen's."

Li Heng: “.”

It's summer, and the clothes are thin. If you read too much, you may get heatstroke, nosebleeds, and your shorts may get torn. Li Heng didn't bother to pay attention to her and continued to read other newspapers.

Ps: Update first and then modify.

The last chapter was abridged and blocked, and I had to ask an editor to unblock it later.

Well, it should be said that almost all the parts in the beginning of the book that have slight sexual content have been deleted. You'd better check it in time, because you won't have the modification permission in March, so you can't add it back.

Well, there is another chapter tonight, but I have to go out, so it might be a little late.

(End of this chapter)
